The waiting game

ORMOND BEACH, FL - - It's early in the season to have lots of migrating birds and way early for any nesting.  So the birds who really like the habitat the Alligator Farm presents just hang out.  The crowd here are Ibis (white) and Roseate Spoonbills (red-ish pink).
   And so we wait for some action ... like wing flapping or actually moving to another perch.  Or maybe fighting over territory.  Anything!  But no.
     However, the alligators were having a ball...or rather a grunting contest.  Lots of alligators, lots of grunting.  Practicing for mating season although it's still a couple of months off
